Funding award (1-12 credits)

“From January 2014, we will fund qualifications only at 3, 6,

9 and 12 credits, on the basis that they currently reflect the

majority of provision that reflects meaningful skills”

Some 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 8,10 and 11 credit qualifications may still

be funded as recently approved English and maths or they

“support the progression of learners with learning difficulties

or disabilities, or both, and for those who are unemployed”
